Employment

Between 2005 and 20009, unemployment rates in Westchester varied by municipality, with a range from 3.2% to 11.2%. Note that unemployment rate estimates are released at the county level on a monthly basis by the New York State Department of Labor. The Census Bureau's estimates for municipalities may substantially deviate from the most recent estimates at the county level due to fluctuations in the economy.
